McGregor's writing "The human Side of Enterprise" introduces the motivational concepts of Theory X and Theory Y.In summary, Theory X assumes the average person is lazy, lacks ambition and dislikes responsibility.Theory Y assumes are willing and eager to work and accept responsibility. There is one point in the description of Theory Y that is particularly interesting.McGregor states "People are not by nature passive or resistant to organizational need.The have become so as a result of experience in the organization" (Ott, Parkes, and Simpson, 2008).

In this discussion, I would like for you to explore what McGregor means by that comment and give and example of where you have seen it occur.
